Themed Items
Posted: Sun Feb 21, 2021 9:04
The score items and extra life pickups probably have something in common other than being junk food among other stuff.
The Keen 1 items are based mainly on food items that the ID Software team consumed while they developed the game (not sure about the book and teddy bear though).
The Keen 2 and 3 items are pretty much belongings of the Vorticons.
The Keen 4 and 5 items are mainly Shikadi foodstuffs.
The Keen 6 items are Bloog consumables (The Vivas are a mystery).
I've come up with items that have a common theme of foodstuffs at the beach (Wednesday at the Beach anyone?)
Mints: 100 points
Pretzel: 200 points
Kebab: 500 points
Umbrella Drink: 1000 points
Chilli Dog: 2000 points
Strawberry Ice-Cream: 5000 points
Cracker: +1 Life point
Box of Crackers: 1UP (100 Life points)
What themes of items would you like to see in a Commander Keen game?
